Chapter 8 : Is that even possible?

Marcel’s POV

As soon as he sat down he started fidgeting with his fingers and couldn’t even look me in the eyes.  He sniffed and cleared his throat and looked up but at anything else other than my face. “So are you actually going to speak or just sit there?”

He looked at me and I saw why he couldn’t look at me, he was really nervous. “Umm, guess ill….start off by saying that this might not be actuality, or it might very well be…..true. Do you know the legend about Mates?” I nodded my head yes and gave him an opening to explain “Well, Jenson has been giving me orders that he never use to give any of his guards or personal staff, order like keep you safe and make sure nothing bad happens to you, then when you ran from dinner he asked me to follow you and make sure you were safe, we saw you shift, and tried to follow you but lost you. You are really fast by the way.”

I smiled to myself and realized that he saw me shift. My eyes grew wide and I started to panic. “Don’t worry, I read your papers and put two and two together. We won’t shun you, we already have one person who has two shifter forms in our city already. No one knows outside of the city. But that’s not why I came here today. When we eventually found you were having a panic attack and I tried to help but before I could reach you, you floated from the ground and blinded us with this really bright ... ..light, and shot up into the sky. And when we eventually regained our sight you were gone.”

“I don’t know what that was, that was the first time something like that happened to me. It really scared me to be honest.” He averted his gaze again and spoke in almost a whisper. “The reason why I think you are Jenson’s mate is, as soon as I linked him he said I should find you and bring you to him. He never did that for anyone, not even his father when we were attacked a few years ago.” He rubbed his hands together and I cleared my throat. “Does he know? About me shifting?” he nodded and cleared his throat.

“But why if I was his mate, would he creepily stare at me outside my window late at night? Why would he invite me and my family to dinner and not even speak to me, or run after me himself. You do realize that if this is true, which I highly doubt, he hasn’t realized it himself yet, all it seems to be to him is infatuation.” He looked at me as if I just cussed out his mother. “He isn’t infatuated, he’s obsessed it seems and that is dangerous. We need to test it and make sure that this is real or just us reading into things too deeply.”

I shook my head and scoffed. “And how exactly do you mean to test the legit-ness of this…..this conspiracy?” he shook his head and lifted his shoulders and hands in a typical ‘I don’t know’ type of way. I rolled my eyes and told him we can meet up tomorrow at the mall to make some sort of plan that actually doesn’t involve me having sex with the ruler of my new city, nor any fucking sexual act of any kind…at all. If that's even possible.

He left shortly after and I took his absence as I sign to go check on my family. My sister was in her room doing her homework. My school year only starts next week so I’m chilling with the extra time off. My mom was in the kitchen cooking dinner, she was making tacos and empanadas. With custard cooking on the stove as well, I knew there was a pastry of some sort in the oven with the taco shells. I know she cooks when she’s stressed, it keeps her mind and body busy. “Mom, are you ok?” “oh mi hijo, I was so stressed,  you didn’t call, you didn’t send a message, and then someone broke in and I got a message from some guy named Markus saying you're recovering and that your leg was broken and oh my boy.”

She finally took a breath and ran to me and gave me the tightest hug ever. My breath caught in my throat. “Mom what are you talking about? I was only gone for a couple hours, I just couldn’t be in that dining hall for much longer.” She gave me a weird look and tilted her head “Dining hall? Dinner with the ruler? Marcel, that was three days ago.” No, that was yesterday, I just needed to get away from him. “No, that was yesterday” she shook her head and hugged me again “no Marcel, that was three days ago.” My eyes grew wider and I looked at my watch and realized I don’t have it….or my phone. “Where’s my phone?” She took it from the counter behind her and gave it to me “When we got to the ruler's house to see you he said that you weren’t taking visitors but he gave me your phone, I tried to charge it but it seemed to go haywire.” I sighed and took my phone and gave my mom a kiss on her forehead and went to my room to see if I can’t fix the phone myself before ultimately buying a new one.

When I got to my room and plugged in my phone my phone started screeching and the screen just went white. But turned off immediately. When I tried to turn it back on it just wouldn’t turn on. Guess I’ll have to either fix my phone, if it’s even fixable, or get a new phone. “Shit, I didn’t back up my cloud!”
